Electrical certificates

Electrical certificates to connect or upgrade your supply.

The Electrical Installation Certificate (CIE, known in Spain as the “boletín”) is what the utility asks for to connect your supply, raise your power or change the account holder. We inspect your installation and handle the paperwork.

FAQ

Questions about certificates.

Who can issue the certificate?

Only a registered electrical installation company, which signs the certificate and is responsible for the installation meeting regulations.

How long does it take?

If the installation complies, the inspection and certificate take a few days. If upgrades are needed, it depends on the work.

Is my old certificate still valid?

It depends on its age, any changes made since and what the utility requires. We confirm it when we review the paperwork.
